reply

I have been surrounded by po-lice before, they can fit a lot of those guys in one ve hicle

Yeah, so did my neighbor.

My High School had Driver's Ed as well. What High School doesn't?

reply

lol... well obviously, mine did'nt!

reply

So did I. — But that was 1963.

reply

Here's what I learned

1) Don't mess with girlscouts
2) You could be the worst singer in the world and still be damn sexy to 10 billion girls. **I LOVE MAX!**
3) Everything must be done with a car. **Zoe could of used the celly to call the police, but instead she packs all the kids in the car and almost gets everyone killed** xD

"1. Upon escaping from terrorist,never rush to the safety of your waiting

Eh, your right about that one...

2. They teach Drivers Ed in High School.

Soem do believe it or not, my HS used to a few years back


3. Mini Vans come supercharged and can do burnouts(looked like a Nissan).


Almost ANY car can do a burn out, you simply rev it up in neutral and then throw it in drive, or 1st if its a manuel, hell my ford tauras can do one, just some cars can do longer ones cause they have more torque


4. You can have 5 kids and still look super hot.

its possible, but very difficult

5. High School Principals are easy.

maybe...

reply

Here's what I learned...

1) It is perfectly acceptable to put a sticky residue on stairs and watch your nanny tumble and receive serious or near-fatal injuries just for laughs.

2) It is also equally acceptable to mislead someone to jump into raw sewage.

3) It makes perfect sense for two people to end up together when the woman shows up for only three scenes.

4) A three year-old is capable of getting into a fish tank that is several feet higher than him.

5) Juice from a box is actually a highly corrosive acid.

6) A man and woman with important government jobs (clearly with good education) have five children.

7) Ducks have ears.

8) Spinning out of control in a car keeps the bees away.

9) It is actually legal to keep a farm animal as a pet in a residential zone.

10) All grades between K to 12 can be schooled in a single building.

-Wow! This movie is more educational than I ever believed!

reply

Things Ive learned.

1. You can ride a pink little kids bike following someone your babysitting without getting noticed.

2. That vice-principals like "The murninator" are total idiots yet still manage to get the job.

3. That a navy seals person cant stop a 15 year old form escaping the house.

4. That you have invented a military secret device that could bring about death and destruction, yet there are no military guards around.

5. Boy scouts competing with girl scouts! (That never occurs. I was in boy scouts. We just compete with other troops of boy scouts.)

6. Highly trained ninjas cant combat aginst a guy with a broom, and baby powder.

7. Getting kidnapped to get information about a missle controlling device, yet you never give it to them, and they just shoot you without getting any info. That makes perfect sense.

8. Using the "Peter Panda" dance as the only way to get through a room full of traps.

reply

The ninjas weren't highly trained, though. That's why he could beat them.

reply

About the K-12 in one building, it is possible. I used to go to a school where there were only 300-odd students and we had a PreK-12 school in one building.

reply

1) It is perfectly acceptable to put a sticky residue on stairs and watch your nanny tumble and receive serious or near-fatal injuries just for laughs.
------------
Have you ever babysat? Not much difference between that and kids leaving toys on the stair's landing.

2) It is also equally acceptable to mislead someone to jump into raw sewage.
-------------
Obviously not that acceptable as she did get a punishment.

3) It makes perfect sense for two people to end up together when the woman shows up for only three scenes.
-------------
You haven't dated much, have you.

4) A three year-old is capable of getting into a fish tank that is several feet higher than him.
-------------
My daughter was climbing out of her playpen at 18 months (1.5 years)

5) Juice from a box is actually a highly corrosive acid.
-------------
No, but it burns like hell.

6) A man and woman with important government jobs (clearly with good education) have five children.
--------------
Jack Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Queen Elizabeth to name a few.

7) Ducks have ears.
--------------
Prove they don't

8) Spinning out of control in a car keeps the bees away.
---------------
No, but the bees were probably one of the reasons the car spun out of control, drive much with bees?

9) It is actually legal to keep a farm animal as a pet in a residential zone.
---------------
Depends on State and Rural laws where you live.

10) All grades between K to 12 can be schooled in a single building.
----------------
Cambria WI, A few suburbs in Milwaukee, Chicago, Madison, and St Louis. (you do realize your city isn't the end-all/be-all of city life right?)

reply

6) A man and woman with important government jobs (clearly with good education) have five children.
--------------
Jack Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Queen Elizabeth to name a few.


This is just a nitpick, but Jack Kennedy only had two kids - John Jr. and Caroline. Robert had a bunch, though. Joe Sr. had a bunch, as well.

reply

Actually Jack Kennedy had three. One died at birth.

reply

WRONG QUEEN LIZZY had only four kids Charlie big lugs, Fat Andrew, Edward The queen, and Her right royal horse face Ann,

reply

Haha, holy crap, calm down.



--celebrating my 9th year on imdb. woohoo!--

reply

6) A man and woman with important government jobs (clearly with good education) have five children.

I can't recall the wife being either employed in a government job. I think the husband was the only one who was working for the government and they never mentioned how long he has been employed so they could have had kids before he got employed by the government.

<<-- Mess With The Best, Die Like The Rest -->>

reply

Mutual attraction is a powerful thing, just because they were together that night doesn't mean they "end up together".
A three year old is capable to getting into many things you wouldn't think it able. Don't have kids, do ya?
Nobody tell you about the birds and the bees?
Yes, ducks have ears, what do you think they hear with?
Yes, you can have a duck as a pet. Chickens, too.
Private schools often have pre-K to 12th in one building. My wife worked at one for 22 years.
Anything else you're misinformed about?

Life is pain. Anyone who says differently is selling something.

reply

If you want to do a burnout in an automatic, hold down the brake with your left leg and use the gas to spin the tires until the higher RMPs overcome to brake's ability to keep the car from actually moving forward. I used it all the time on the drag strip before lining up and lauching, to warm the tires and remove any debris. When you line up to race, the same technique is used to launch, only you don't burn the tires, you just get to the RPM level right under the point where the tires spin. This increases your 60' times dramatically. You can also install a lock-up torque converter with a higher stall speed than the stock converter to really increase these numbers. My stock Firehawk had a lower range torque converter than it has now, and the RPMs would overcome the brake at around 1800 RPM. I installed a higher torque converter and now the car will not break loose until the RPMs are around 3000, thus you launch when the RPMs are higher giving a better 60' time and overall time.

Are you saying that high schools no longer teach Driver's Ed? This explains a lot...

[deleted]

Funny for those who enjoy dirty diapers, projectile vomiting, and kicks to the groin (retards, animals, and kids under 8), Yes!

Otherwise, its a movie with quite a "lazy" screenplay. When I say lazy, I mean it does not even try to be logical. It just does whatever it wants and hopes no one will notice how obscene and out-of-this-world it is.

If these kinds of movies are the ones that make money and are what people think is good entertainment, there is no hope left in humanity.

2) It is also equally acceptable to mislead someone to jump into raw sewage.---Now that was funny.
3) It makes perfect sense for two people to end up together when the woman shows up for only three scenes.---Romeo was in love wiht Juliet by the second scene she was in......
4) A three year-old is capable of getting into a fish tank that is several feet higher than him.---Clearly, you've enver dealt wiht a three year old...they're capable of ANYTHING
5) Juice from a box is actually a highly corrosive acid.---have you ever read the ingredients? Plus, you know, anythign that gets squirted in yuore eye is painful

have five children.---How is this not possible?
7) Ducks have ears.---It never said ducks have ears, at elast not that I recall
8) Spinning out of control in a car keeps the bees away.---People do irrational thigns when chased by bees.

10) All grades between K to 12 can be schooled in a single building.---I do beleive the buildings were *beep* to one another. Same grounds, different school sections. Which can be done to some degree in a midsize town, or a twon wiht multiple schools.

Scarface2035
1. You can ride a pink little kids bike following someone your babysitting without getting noticed.---You'd be shocked what you can do without anyone noticing.
2. That vice-principals like "The murninator" are total idiots yet still manage to get the job.---As the Principal said "he has tenure". Doesn't mean he was always an idiot, he just became one.
3. That a navy seals person cant stop a 15 year old form escaping the house.---He didn't need to. He had the device to track them and was confident. PLus...15 year olds are very crafty.
4. That you have invented a military secret device that could bring about death and destruction, yet there are no military guards around.---Well, it was SECRET..I feel that's an importa clue to why they kept it SECRET
5. Boy scouts competing with girl scouts! (That never occurs. I was in boy
scouts. We just compete with other troops of boy scouts.)---I agree, and same story. Troop 303, Southern Jersey
6. Highly trained ninjas cant combat aginst a guy with a broom, and baby powder.---Well, he was pretty highly traiend, new his grounds, and on the defensive....that helps a lot
7. Getting kidnapped to get information about a missle controlling device, yet you never give it to them, and they just shoot you without getting any info. That makes perfect sense.---Yeah...that was kind of stupid. Of course, if the officer was in on it, he must've figured wiht the neighbor ninjas, he had thigns covered.
8. Using the "Peter Panda" dance as the only way to get through a room full of traps.---Well, that's the inventor's perrogative. They prolly told him to use some sort of passcode or something that no one else would know.

1. nobody really recognizes That vin diesel is around.---Seriously? C'mon. Poeple don't exist in their own movies, except Schwarzenneger in last Action Hero.
2. that a paper submerged in crap will still be readable.---Yeah..I dunno about that.
3. That vin diesel never gets killed, even when it's very easy.---Well, he is the star.....
4. that vice-principals are power freaks that intend to harass students, rather than help them.---No, but this one was.
5. that american police will always yell "freeze" and skid to a stop.---I'm pretty sure they're required to take protocol of similar nature to that. Warn the suspect, do not sneak up on the suspct, etc.


I liked this movie, really. It was amazingly better than I expected . I'm alos bored at the moment cuz of my day off, lol, thus the answering of everything....

Wow! You will do anything to defend this movie and its idiocy...even by coming up with the lamest excuses ever.

reply

And you will do anything to knock it :)

reply

I thnk this movie was great and anyone who doesn't like it, is crazy. As for Mrs. MaxTheriot saying the princible was annoying: No she wasn't I actually think she was great. I agree with everything that AdamtheGerberBaby said. Thanks for sticking up for this movie.

reply

i thought this movie was not great but watchable. its a good film for its genre, and was funny in parts! all in all it was a good film to see with your mates, but no oscar nominations i'm thinking...

reply

no oscar nominations, but that doesn't rule out razzie nominations.

reply

My one big thing that bothered me about the movie was the fact that there was a very high-tech and probably extremely expensive vault under their house and nobody knew about it except the father. How is that even possible? It's unlikely that it came with the house. What did he just forbid anyone from looking outside while they were building it and then kill everyone that built it, so no one would ever would ever know?

Come on why do movies put in "secret" basement or vaults and don't even explain how it is possible that no one knows about them?

Quote: -If you cut your hair and die it blonde, you're a Nazi according to your vice principal.

The hair annoyed the vice principle because the vice principal found the kid annoying - simple as that. He (and the principal as well) thought Seth was a Nazi because he found the armband in his locker. Even Shane wondered about Seth, until he followed him and discovered that he was in "The Sound of Music".

Maybe the same the Allied POW's dug a tunnel under the very noses of their German guards in The Great Escape? Since that movie is base on a true event, one must assume that it is indeed possible.

My view point to the movie and post. Yes Adam TGB you were bored or had much time but good summary to read half thru.

Movies are for entertainment and depending on the movie made for age groups. This was not meant to be a military or super secret spy, by the bood movie. It is for people that like to watch such be entertained. Children, most would love this movie and the parents too for clean entertainment for them. The acting was very good for the ones that don't think so I am sure can't act or would be out acting. Sure there are many things in the movie that wouldn't be real but then this wasn't a documentary but how many of them aren't changed for entertainment. It's gotten to the point now every film has to be as in real life (boring), be a blockbuster (seen any good ones) or please everyone. Hey if you don't like the preview or write ups don't go; don't have to please your girl just say no. It was entertainment for children (not kids for I don't think goats are allowed in theaters), parents that had or have children and can understand some of these, ducks can hear for the city ones that never been around them, the underground thing could have been there but remodeled with help of government for do you know what is under your house and I see some don't watch Jackie Chan movies and what props he uses for real in his movies for his fighting.

Watch a movie for just entertainment and stop the real stuff unless it was about a real thing. This just drags down yourself to others and leaves the fun parts of the movie left out.

"Funny for those who enjoy dirty diapers, projectile vomiting, and kicks to the groin (retards, animals, and kids under 8), Yes!"

I am insulted. I love this movie (in fact i own it). I am a mother and therefore almost continually knee deep in dirty diapers and projectile vomiting so why the hell would i choose to see any movie if that's all it offered? I'm female obviously and groin kicks are not one of my favourite things to see, and yes....i am way over 8 years old. All I know is that it had me rolling on the floor laughing, not only that but I could relate to everything those kids got up to (and yes, 3 year olds ARE capable of anything). It's a movie my husband, kids and I can all enjoy together. In a world thats so busy, movies like this are a godsend. They allow families to take a couple of hours out of life and just relax...together, and frankly I don't want my life with my kids to be any different.

There is nothing in the world as ecumenical and at the same time as parochial as the Bible. We all know that the Bible contradicts itself on numerous occasions. We also all know that that's not the topic of this thread.

I've been using IMDB to reference movies, which includes visiting its forums for over two years now. Most threads about movies have the same structure, in which it starts out with a (hypo)thesis and then consequently waters down to lovers versus haters. By the time that happens, the purpose of the thread is foregone. Okay?
